Q: Can you please recommend where to safely park CAD and USD; with the highest yield? I have been using CASH.TO (Yield 2.33% as of February 20) or CBIL.TO (Y 2.42%) for CAD and UBIL.U.TO (Y 4.08%) for USD.
Our BNS portfolio manager recently put some cash into the following mutual funds:
BNS Investment Savings Account Series F U$(DYN6005:CA)
BNS INVESTMENT SAVINGS ACCOUNT SR F (6004). Can you please tell me how frequently the latter two savings accounts pay out interest and what is the current yield for each? I could not find any information online for these BNS savings mutual funds.
Thanks!

Q: I need some consumer discretionary for my RRIF. I want to minimize market surprises so I've chosen these two. Both have great dividend history and OK 5 year CAGR. The RIF is not my primary source of income but I do find dividends to be a help when getting over rough patches. Which would you choose for a long term hold. Or perhaps both? Any other choices? Thank You

Q: What option would you suggest to pursue to gain additional exposure to technology within a portfolio? I currently only own QQQ in USD registered account.

1) just add more to QQQ at the current exchange rate
2) diversify and add XIT
3) diversify and add both XIT and CSU at 50/50 (understanding XIT owns approximately 23% of CSU already)
4) none of the above, try an alternative (e.g. QQQM)

Q: I am retired and investing for income. I have recently been learning what I can of split corportions. I came across Ninepoint's Large Cap split corp. It is not very old and all I can find so far is flashy sales but not much detail.

Please provide your thoughts on Ninepoint Patners management and comment on NPS specifically.

Thank you.
